We are informed this morning that the Spartanburg and Union Railroad was yesterday knocked off to Mr. R. Y. McAden of Charlotte, as puchaser; but at what figures we are not informed. This road is about 66 miles in length and connects with the Richmond and Atlanta Air Line. A Simple Thought. The dead Stephens' wife was nothing but a poor white woman and her chil dren nothing but poor little runabouts for a set of 'careless and thoughtless young gentlemen" to render fatherless. Why not pardon his murderers? Doit. And if you don't catch ! from the poor people, we are mistaken. Railroad. Heads Prospecting. General Roosevelt, president of the Southern Security Liny, and CoJ. Bridg ers of the Wilmington and AVcldon Railroad, passed up the Central track Monday in special car as far as Company Shops. They remained a half hour at that place and then returned to Wil mington. A Concert. At Holland's Church in this county, Thursday night, Mr. Green, the singing master, and his school gave a concert at the close of the session? The singing was very good and would have . done credit to any community. There were 30 scholars, composed of the young la dies and young gentlemen of that neigh borhood.', Holland's Church was taste fully decorated with evergreen and well lit up. Cotton in Wake and Johnston; Heavy preparations are being made in the southern section of this county, as well as in the western portion of Johnston, for a big cotton crop this year. The farmers are composting and preparing their lands with two horse plows, a thing they have never done until this season. The crop of 1872 is about picked and ready for market. On an average about one-third of the crop is unsold.. Chapel Hill Railroads and other Matters. Our correspondent writes: The en gineers have completed one route for the railroad survey which terminates about half a mile above University Station, distance 3i miles, and the route a very good one. I think this will be the one settled upon, though others will be tried. Thoy .are now surveying a route to Durham. A sensation : ' Well, we have had another little pleasant sen sation. The report got out that Miss was to be married las't Thursday night. A perfect storm party of young men collected at the house to witness the nuptials, but nothing of the kind took place.- The " boys" were fooled to death and the next day those of their friends who were too smart to be caught were hollering to them on the street, Where's your wedding cake?" Can cer : Mrs. Emerson, who went to Char lotte to be treated for cancer, died here Friday night. Willie J. Palmer in Canada. Dr. W. J. Palmer entertained the Governor, Lt. Governor and the Legis lature of Ontario, at the Asylum ' for Deaf, Dumb and Blind, of which he is president, the other ' night in Belleville, Canada. The Doctor made a speech welcoming his Excellency in which he was applauded : several times by .the audience, and then after an entertain ment by the 'mutes and "blind, they were all dinnered and feasted at Ontario Hall, where the Queen and the Prince and Princess of Wales were toasted, and the band played "Rule Britannia," and the Lieut. Governor and other dig nitaries made speeches. Dr. Palmer began his speech cf welcome as follows: "It gives me pleasure to welcome your Excellency to our Institution. On the 21st day of October 1870, the day after the formal opening of this Institution, you did ua the-honor to. pay us a visit. I felt then that you were interested in our work, and subsequent interviews have convinced me that the : Deaf 'and Dumb of the Province of Ontario have no firmer,-or warmer friend, than your Excellency. (Cheers.) I am proud also to welcome the Representative of the Government and members of Parlia ment, with the ladies and gentlemen who are here with us to-day." ; ' ; Our State.

The beagle was making an attempt to catch a chicken in or near the dwelling house door. It measured ' four and a half feet from tip to tip. Cottox burned. The Charlotte Observer' says : As the mail train on the C, C. & A. Railroad was going south on Saturday night, a load of cotton caught fire from sparks thrown from the en gine. The load consisted of 27; bales, and all efforts to extinguish the flames were utterly futile. The loss of the cot ton and box-car was complete. A grubworm in a brick. The Surry Visitor says : A few days ago we were told, by Mr. V. H. Lewis, who resides some six miles from this place, a man of undoubted veracity, that he, a short time ago, while removing the brick from the stem of an old chimney, which had been standing about seventy five years, broke open one of the bricks taken from near the top of the chimney, in which he found ja full grown, - living grubworm! The brick was perfectly sound and solid, and the cavity contain ing tho worm had the appearance of glazed earthenware. We don't propose to undertake to solve the mystery, but would like very much if some one else would. An Iredell postmaster in bad luck. The Charlotte Observer says : We learned yesterday that 6ne day last week, while Mr.1 William ' Wilson, the postmaster at Mooresville, Iredell coun-f ty, was riding in the country near Co lumbia, S. C., he was assaulted, knock ed from his horse, and robbed of $200 in money. Mr. Wilson arrived in Char lotte yesterday and was ttaken to his home on the Statesville train. These" are the facts as ,we heard themjrester-? day. The Columbia Union, however, states that Mr. Wilson was thrown by his horse, and pronounces the robbery part untrue. We have our version of the story from a gentleman whom we deem altogether reliable.' Our City. All men are entitled to be Mistered. Well. It is getting most time to see those lights. Glad to hear it. If we hadn't known the Syrup was good, -wouldn't have said so. Remember to enquire for Ycning's Bronchial Syrup.

The completeness with which he appears ,in one character after another, often ena bracing totally differ ent phases of plot and action, is some thing marvelousi Yet he seems equally good in all though the excellencies ex hibited in some particular parts have made them specially famous.

She once remarked to a friend who was viewing the remains: "Alas ! how often have I banged these bones with a broomstick. I am sorry for it now."

He got the affair considerably mixedj and wound up by saying : "Suffer lit tle children to come unto them:" At which the bride remarked": "Thank you ; John, let's go ; that's all we want." rThe word "national" on our bank bills is a guarantee of their payment, even should the bank fail. It is this which gives all "National" bank bills; whether issued in New York or Nevada, their unquestionable credit. It is not strange, therefore, that speculators have, in a few instances, adopted the word upon bills issued by themselves. To prevent this fraud a bill is pending in Congress imposing a penalty of $50 a day upon any bank or other institu tion assuming the title of "national" without authority. Albany Journal.

Rev. .tames Boyden of Taunton (Mass.) had been exposed to the small pox and so conscientious was he, that instead of mingling with his unsuspect ing fellow men, he shut himself up in his garret and stayed there for two weeks until he thought himself incapa ble of infecting any one. Beecher says : There are many men that live all their lives with oaths hissing on their lips like steam in a boiler, and they keep them under, and there are other men that live far above them and never think of an oath, t think God measures the man that does not swear and yet wants to all his life long, and ranks him higher than he who does not swear and never wants to.

The old lady recently lectured in Detroit and tells all about her trip. She says they bothered her with a heap of questions, people meeting her on the street, and asking, "Aunty, how old are you?" That Mr. Fish put her in the way to stop these foolish, questions by In structing her to charge five dollars tor telling her age, which she did. She found Mayor Bowen in the President's room and the mayor asked her age, she charged him $5, and he smiled and handed it over remarking, "it was worth that to know." Then she goes on to describe her interview with Gen. Grant: President Grant was sitting near by at that time. After tho Mayor left he said, " Have you any of your pho tographs with you?" I gave him one, and then he put his hand in his pocket and took from it a $5 note. " There," said he, " take that, and I won't ask you what your age is, either." A tall, gaunt Yankee came into the room while I was there. He felt pretty important, too, I reckon. He looked all around the room, in which were several persons, as if in search of some one. Then he went up to Grant sort of pompons like, who was sitting by a table: "I say, bo you President T' Yes," tald Grant, quiet ly. The Yankee looked at him for a! few seconds' without saying anything " I vum, you ain'f so old as I thought you was, not by a darned sight.' . After a pause, " How old bo ye?" I'm 49," said the President. "Shoo! Well, now, really, is that all? 'Is that your true age ?' ' ; He admitted gently that i t was. "Weill declare, I expected to see an older man. Why, your hair ain't gray hardly. Supposed 'twould be. " And sd you'roonly forty odd years?" ; Then, after a pause while he looked at the President for a while longer,, he said : " Don't know as I want to say anything else, so good day," and off he went, saying to himself, " ain't near so old as I expected." The President merely smiled, and did what most men wouldn't have done, ho kept his patience. I felt so ashamed while that pesky man was talking to him. There, I'd been asking $5 to tell my . age, and here was' the President of the United States as patient and quiet as a lamb, a answering them foolish people who hadn't nothing better to say than that and come and almost ' 4 sass' 'the Presid en t.
